cschantz b3773ee37c Fix bash history cleaning in trace eraser script
The trace eraser was failing with "no previous regular expression" sed errors and wasn't effectively cleaning bash history.

Problems fixed:
• Broken sed pattern matching (caused errors, unreliable)
• Pattern-based deletion doesn't catch all toolkit usage
• In-memory history wasn't being cleared

New approach:
• Simply removes last 50 entries from bash history files
• More reliable than pattern matching (catches downloads, usage, everything)
• Clears in-memory history with history -c && history -w
• Creates .bak backup before cleaning
• Handles both root and user histories
• Changed system log cleaning from sed to grep -v (more reliable)
• Added symlink check for log files

This ensures the last 50 commands (covering toolkit download, installation, and usage) are completely removed from bash history.
